    Dont get me wrong im a defender man through and through but the 4.2 ltr Patrol is a excellent vehicle still commanding $40k plus for a good one
    PopTop or similar? Two doors pref ( sorry, didn't say that bit )? I've never seen one. 130"?

    I agree that they are tough.

    Not quiet a pop top roof camper but its close. Meets pretty much all your other requirements too.

    Saw a ford ranger of the same configuration today, was towing a tinny which had a roof top tent on it. Was well thought out

Name me one, other than a Troopy, that can be converted into a true poptop motorhome/camper. Don't say a G-Wagen, as it fails all fences here. What "endless" choices do you see? Serious question, Zeroes, as I am looking for just that car right now. The only thing close is a secondhand OKA. I would love to hear of alternatives.
    It sounds like you want a Defender Johntins.

    I didnt say there were any other vehicles like a Defender, there aren't. That's why Defenders are unique. That's why the prices are holding. There's nothing else comparable, as you've identified.

    However if you don't want the characteristics you're looking for - ie: a Defender - then there is endless choice.

    The 130's I see value in...the 110's not so much...the 90 not at all.

    Cheers

    Beautiful. Last of the 300 Tdi. Easily worth $20K even without all the accessories IMO.

    If yours is in in same condition Colin, absolutely worth more.
